title: [Hepatitis B vaccination in patients with chronic renal failure].
abstract: In the submitted review the authors present basic information on immunization against viral hepatitis B (VHB) in patients with chronic renal failure. These patients have a significantly lower response to the vaccine against VHB, due in particular to secondary immunodeficiency. Possible correction of this adverse situation can be achieved by modification of the immunization pattern (type and dosage of vaccine, the period and early time of vaccination, route of administration) and adjuvant immunomodulating therapy.
